In EE, starting from the 2nd triplet, there are no stems sustaining the sound of the last notes of particular triplets. Most probably, it is a mistake (cf. bar 28).

In EE the  sign is placed too early, under, and even before the 2nd crotchet of the bar. It is certainly a mistake, similarly as the lack of pedalling in GE.

We give the slur of A (→GE). The slur in FE was led inaccurately – it ends on the 1st chord in bar 46. In EE there is no slur. In comparison with the complete and logic notation of A (slurs in the L.H. are compatible with the phrasing in the R.H.), the slurring in FE and EE in bars 45-50 displays numerous lacks and errors.

We give the slur of A (→GE). FE and EE are totally lacking the slur, which can be considered as an obvious oversight.

In A (→GE1) and FE there is no natural raising d1 into d1. In this context, it is undoubtedly Chopin's oversight, one of the most common. The natural was added in all 3 pupils' copies. In GE2 a flat was added in front of the upper note, which was corrected in GE3 (→GE4). EE has doubly erroneous version, caused probably by Chopin's manner of writing seconds vertically and not diagonally.
